Those were the days!!!!

Been wanting to quote this line whenever I hear an old buddy, whose just had a tantalising brush with the 'Good old days' of yesteryears and is on a 'high' from those ' old days', tell me with a sigh, "Oh man, Those were the days!!! This place gives me a high!!!"

" ...sentimental nostalgia that elevates Good Old days to a spurious perfection..."

Well, I never penned those words!!!! :)
